Levi’s world headquarters is in SF. Right downtown by the Embarcadero. One of the first things I like to do when moving to a new place is seek out the Thrift shops. And every single thrift shop I’ve been to in San Francisco has quite a varied selection of Levi’s. And they’re all cheap. And..
I must confess…I have a fascination with North Korea. My fascination started with a Nat Geo documentary, then this Vice Guide to Travel, then a book called ‘Long Road Home’ and another book called ‘Escape from Camp 14’. I’ve got one more in the queue called ‘Nothing to Envy’. This stuff really screws with my..
I made a couple of rookie mistakes in the last couple of days…I changed domain hosting without backing up my info. I lost about 10-20 posts…damn.
Yes, I’ll be the first to say it – I discovered this band before anyone else did. And I’m proud of that fact. My friend Mike and I went to BB Kings in New York to see Slick Rick, Scarface & Goodie Mob in concert back in 2009 or 2010 and these guys from Boston,..
I’m not big on keeping up with latest version of expensive things. I bought an iPhone 4 three and a half years ago and it’s pretty much held up for me during that time. As with most things being used for hours upon hours over the course of more than a thousand days, it’s started..

We watched a very interesting documentary last night about fans of the Stanley Kubrick movie ‘The Shining’. A few of the theories were fascinating…I can’t say I bought them all but…wow. Highly recommended.
Back when I moved to New York in 2003, the day after the blackout, I literally got off the plane after a redeye and took a cab to my Great Aunts house in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. Even the cabbie had trouble finding Mackay Place. I had met my Great Aunt, once, back in the late..
If you haven’t checked out Big KRIT yet, I’d highly recommend him (again). Definitely my favorite *new* rapper since maybe K’naan. If you’ve been around me any time within the past 2 (almost 3) years and asked me about what I’m listening to, I’m sure I’ve told you about this dude. And I’m sure you’ve ignored..
Just started this book the other day. It’s basically the life story of Vegan ultramarathoner Scott Jurek – this dude is the truth. I don’t know why, but when I feel like aspects of my life are lacking I feel the need to read about them as they stay fresh in my mind. Right now..
